Cut along the pen line with a sharp Excel knife. Peel of the excess. Paint. >> Perfect Not to forget you can then also make your own "custom" windows!
I've never had them bleed, they are a challenge to stick on in the exact right spot though..
Only problem with liquid mask + knife is if you cut into the polycarbonate you weaken it, so it might crack later.

I usually just cut thin strips of electrical tape and run it along the edge, it's easy to bend around curves
